After getting on the plane, Xu Sheng received a call from his grandfather as he took his seat.
Xu Hefu asked him directly: "How was your weekend?"
Xu Sheng thought for a while and answered truthfully: "Not bad."
Tang Zhi sat in the back seat and opened the London Times. Hearing this, he suddenly glanced at him.
Xu Sheng lowered his eyes and looked at the newspaper in Tang Zhi's hand. The front page showed the recently hotly debated adoptive mother molestation case, which was scheduled to be heard this afternoon.
Tang Zhi was probably not very interested in the case, so he turned the page after only a few seconds.
"Zhao Shao is very satisfied," Xu Hefu told Xu Sheng on the other end, "She will come back with her elders next week to worship her ancestors. You should also go back to Bingang."
Tang Zhi didn't seem to want to read the second page of the London Times, which was filled with commentary on the case, so he turned the page again.
Xu Sheng didn't want to run back and forth, and felt that the sound of the pages being turned was a bit noisy, so he grabbed Tang Zhi's hand that was still trying to turn the newspaper and told Xu Hefu: "Miss Zhao told me yesterday that she will be next Zhou went to the electronic syllable festival.”
Tang Zhi was caught by him and was surprised. He looked up at Xu Sheng and asked angrily: "What's wrong?"
"Really?" Xu Hefu was a little surprised. After being quiet for a while, he told Xu Sheng, "I'll ask Mr. Zhao again."
Xu Sheng said "Okay" noncommittally, and Xu Hefu suddenly asked: "Don't you want to come back?"
Tang Zhi moved his hand, grabbed the back of Xu Sheng's hand, and shook it. Xu Sheng lowered his head, stared at Tang Zhi's eyelashes, and his white fingers rubbing on the back of his hand, and denied Xu Hefu very naturally: " no."
"Yes." Xu Hefu told him a few more words and hung up the phone.
Seeing Xu Sheng put down his cell phone, Tang Zhi asked in a low voice: "Why are you arresting me?"
Xu Sheng let him go and told him: "You are very noisy when you turn the newspaper."
Tang Zhi realized the mistake he had made and said "Oh" honestly. Xu Sheng took his newspaper away and started to protest again: "I haven't finished reading it yet."
Xu Sheng turned to the economic section and glanced at him. He seemed to swallow his anger and came closer, as if he wanted to watch with Xu Sheng. His shoulders were close to Xu Sheng, as if he didn't regard himself as an outsider.
"Tang Zhi," Xu Sheng couldn't hold back, pointed to the screen in front of him, and asked him, "There isn't the kind of movie you like to watch, is there?"
Tang Zhi was stunned for a moment and frowned, as if he wanted to scold Xu Sheng, but he didn't dare to scold him and turned his face away.
The plane paused and began to taxi.
Xu Sheng read a few lines, looked at the newspaper, called Tang Zhi's name, asked Tang Zhi to look at him again, and then told Tang Zhi: "I may go back to Bingang next week."
Tang Zhi nodded and suddenly asked Xu Sheng: "Mr. Xu, do you want to be with her?"
Xu Sheng turned to look at him, and Tang Zhi looked at him without much emotion. Maybe it was because Xu Sheng didn't answer him. He felt embarrassed, and added: "I saw her back yesterday, and I think she matches you very well."
Xu Sheng stared into Tang Zhi's eyes, feeling a weak but strange and indescribable emotion. After a few seconds, even he felt it was too harsh and asked: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
Perhaps Xu Sheng did not control his tone well. Tang Zhi was stunned for a moment by his question, moved his lips, and said very softly: "I was just asking casually."
"You don't have to be like this..." Tang Zhi seemed to have failed to choose the right words and ended the sentence vaguely. Then he looked down at his hands, then turned to look out the window. The plane took off.
He almost lay down next to the small porthole window. Xu Sheng couldn't see his face. He put the newspaper away and looked down at the front page.
But after really not being able to read a few lines of words, Xu Sheng raised his head again.
Tang Zhi's neck was slender and fair. The light from the reading lamp shone on his ears and back, making the small space behind him quiet and soft, making it different from other spaces.
Tang Zhi's dependence is harmless. Xu Sheng thought. It doesn’t hurt to ask questions.
Maybe it was because I gave Xu Sheng my first time last night, so I had incorrect expectations for their relationship.
Just let Tang Zhi wake up, don't be too bad to Tang Zhi.
After the plane passed through the clouds, the sun came out. Tang Zhi pulled down the visor and finally stopped looking out the window, staring blankly at the screen in front of him.
After a while, Xu Sheng called his name. He slowly raised his head, looked at Xu Sheng, and opened his lips slightly. He looked a little unhappy and asked Xu Sheng, "What's wrong?"
Xu Sheng looked at him for a while and said to him: "I'm not with Zhao Shao yet."
I hope Tang Zhi can understand what he means.
Tang Zhi was stunned for a moment and said "Oh", but did not suddenly get excited.
Xu Sheng gave him the newspaper that he had never read and said, "I've finished reading it."
Tang Zhi took it, looked at Xu Sheng, and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.
He lowered his head. He must have noticed that the newspaper Xu Sheng gave him had changed to the front page again. The hand holding the newspaper trembled slightly. Then he closed it for a moment and quickly folded the newspaper and put it away. , said to Xu Sheng: "I'm going to sleep."
Tang Zhi closed his eyes tightly and leaned back on the chair. After a while, he fell asleep. He quietly and silently rested his face on Xu Sheng's shoulder.
Xu Sheng lowered his eyes and saw that he was really close to Xu Sheng. His lips were very red and his eyelashes were very long.
The cabin of the small passenger plane was too narrow, and the space with the reading lights turned off was too dark. Xu Sheng raised his hand very gently and touched Tang Zhi's cheek, then moved down and touched Tang Zhi's lips even more lightly.
When the meal arrived, the flight attendant came over to ask in a soft voice. Xu Sheng thought of the favorite foods that Tang Zhi had missed because he was too sleepy in the lounge just now, and decided to wait until Tang Zhi woke up after returning to Xicheng before letting him eat them. Order something.
Because Tang Zhi is the kind of person who gets hungry easily.
Tang Zhi was still awake when he got off the plane.
Xu Sheng's shoulders were a little stiff as he leaned against him. He took out his mobile phone and received messages from Secretary Xu Hefu and a group shareholder with whom he had a good relationship.
Secretary Fei told him that Miss Zhao had changed her plan for the electronic music festival and would arrive in Bingang on time next week.
The shareholders are well-informed. They have heard that Xu Sheng will return to Bingang next week and want to meet with Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng replied and Tang Zhi finally woke up.
He and Xu Sheng got off the plane and got in the car back to the hotel.
The drivers assigned to them by automobile groups like to listen to the in-car radio.
As soon as they got into the car, the female anchor was broadcasting the afternoon molestation trial. A key witness suddenly reversed his confession in court and denied his testimony on the day of the incident, causing the trial to be interrupted.
The driver cursed, and Tang Zhi suddenly spoke from the front and asked the driver: "Can you please change the channel?"
His tone was calm, as if he just didn't like listening to this show.
Xu Sheng looked up and saw the driver turning his face sideways, looking at Tang Zhi in surprise. After a few seconds, he said "Okay, sir" and pressed the next radio station.
Not long after, they arrived at the hotel.
Entering the revolving door, there were two blond and blue-eyed little boys of four or five years old playing near the small fountain in the hall. One of them suddenly rushed towards Tang Zhi while running.
The boy looked like a small ball, but the impact was quite strong. Tang Zhi was probably distracted and didn't pay attention, so he was shaken by the impact.
Xu Sheng hugged Tang Zhi's waist in time, and he stood firm.
The little boy bumped into Tang Zhi, bounced back, sat on the ground, raised his face as if he didn't react, and looked at Tang Zhi without saying a word.
The other one also came over and stood aside without speaking.
Xu Sheng turned his head to look at Tang Zhi. Tang Zhi bent down, as if he wanted to pick up the little boy, but looking at his expression, it seemed as if the child was some kind of monster, and he never dared to reach out.
Xu Sheng didn't like children and had no intention of having them, so he just watched from the sidelines.
The little boy was a little fat, with bulging cheeks and round eyes. He thought Tang Zhi was going to hug him, so he stretched out his short hand, but Tang Zhi still didn't move.
Tang Zhi and the little boy's faces were almost the same size, and they were staring at each other in a stalemate, which looked a little funny.
Finally, the little boy gave up, got up and ran away. Tang Zhi looked at their backs again, standing for a moment as if he was a little uneasy.
He looked like someone who liked and admired him very much, showing an innocence that was completely different from his appearance.
Even purer than before the first time.
Later, Xu Sheng called his name, and he seemed to wake up from a dream and left with Xu Sheng.
